2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate EV 4X4 Electricity · BCC 5

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 26 January 2026 with no defects recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from February 2025, indicating an exceptionally stable maintenance trend. The complete absence of both failures and advisories over the last two testing cycles suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and that no significant mechanical degradation has yet manifested in the areas typically scrutinised during a DVSA inspection. With a recorded mileage of 40,209 miles over approximately four years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 10,052 miles per annum. This usage rate is considered typical for a modern electric vehicle and suggests a balanced duty cycle. There is no evidence of excessive mileage accumulation that would prematurely wear the drivetrain or suspension components, nor is the mileage low enough to suggest the risks associated with long-term standing, such as seized braking components or perished rubber seals. Given the clean MOT history, the prospective buyer should focus on the condition of consumables and time-based degradation. It is important to inspect the tyre treads and sidewalls for uneven wear, which could indicate a requirement for wheel alignment or the early stages of suspension bush wear. While electric vehicles generally experience reduced brake wear due to regenerative braking, the buyer should still check the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure the calipers are not binding, as this can occur even in vehicles with regular usage. Verification of the service history is paramount to ensure that calendar-based maintenance, such as cabin filter replacements and brake fluid flushes, has been performed according to the manufacturer's schedule. The buyer should specifically evaluate the health of the 12V auxiliary battery, as these are prone to degradation in EVs and can lead to unexpected immobilisation. Finally, a test drive should be used to listen for any unusual suspension clunks or wind noise at motorway speeds, and the charging port seals should be inspected for any environmental wear or debris.
